Vehicle mosquito net

Abstract

The present invention teaches a vehicle window mosquito net having an excess of fabric beyond the dimension of the vehicle window so that the excess fabric may be draped over the vehicle door and the door closed to secure up to three sides of the invention in place. The present invention further teaches use of flexible polymer tubing on at least one edge, such as the bottom edge, the flexible polymer tubing dimensioned and configured to fit into the window channel at the bottom of a typical vehicle window. The present invention yet further teaches that mosquito netting for vehicles may advantageously be held in place by hook-and-loop fabric engaging the vehicle's fabric interior, may come equipped with small devices such as pockets, pouches and ties which allow easy storage when not in use and may be coated with a pyrethroid insecticide.
